The Second World War – an unparalleled catastrophe. With millions of victims, destruction and immeasurable suffering. But without this catastrophe, the ‘light freight locomotive’ of the Deutsche Reichsbahn would probably never have achieved the importance it has today. It would probably never have become the most built steam locomotive in the world. With probably the most modern production logistics of that time and with the help of forced labour, more than 10,000 units were built. After the war they became a decisive factor in the reconstruction of Europe. More than 80 years later traces could be found in at least 25 countries and on three continents. Find out more about the history of this locomotive, which had a major impact on the railways of the continent.
Drawing on a wealth of knowledge and experience and a background of more than 1,000 magazine articles on the subject, engine control expert Jeff Hartman explains everything from the basics of engine management to the building of complicated project cars. Hartman has substantially updated the material from his 1993 MBI book Fuel Injection (0-879387-43-2) to address the incredible developments in automotive fuel injection technology from the past decade, including the multitude of import cars that are the subject of so much hot rodding today. Hartman's text is extremely detailed and logically arranged to help readers better understand this complex topic.
